As we watched our dear Naples and Marco being hammered by Irma, we thought about each of you and prayed that you and your loved ones stayed safe and unharmed.

We did not have access to email, but we were communicating via Facebook. We shared some community volunteering before the storm, we shared a heartfelt prayer, and then Chaya's precious reading of Psalms and blessing the community.

The eye has passed now is the time to see what we can do to help and provide for the needs of our community.

This was a strong one, but we are stronger. Please contribute to our efforts or just stay in touch and together we will overcome this.
